What of Michigan Hereafter?
Chicago Herald,

The defeat OF the prohibitOry amend
ment in Michigan will be likely to.absolve
the Republican party from furt her adVO-
caCy of that question. Its leaders will
point to the fact that they did their hest
ter the measure and that it's rejection by
a decisive vote proves that the people
of the state are not yet prepared to go to
the lengths which the more radical
teetotalers deem eXpedient. They will
argue also, that the party, in the face Of
such an unmistakable popular verdict,
cannot afford to insist Immediately upon
the adoption Of policy which it is clear
that the people do not favor. All this
will be only natural, and no great fault
can be found with the practical politicians
who refuse again to jeOpardiZe the safety
of their organization in the advocacy of
an unpopular issue. But will the origin
al PrOhibitiOnists be as easily satisfied
with the experience that they have had?
Probably they will not.
There are In Michigan not less than
%, 900 voters who may be depended upon
to vote the prohibition ticket whether
there is any prospect of its election or
not. They are actuated by principle, and
to man thus governed success becomes
a secondary consideration. Disaster does
not detract in the least from the Justice
of his cause or lessen his faith in its ulti-
mate triumph. # this element is now
satisfied and is willing to return to the
fold whence the greater part of it came, q
happy solution of the difficulties which
have so long beset the Republicans of
Michigan will be found, but if, on
the other hand, it continues its Organiza-
ton, and finding no encouragement IN
Republican circles, puts its own candi-
dates in the field, it is altogether prOoa-
bic that the recent experience will result
in the augmentation of its numbers. The
man VINO has once voted for a principle
finds it easier to do so the second time
than it was at first, and any ialtering by
the Republicans hereafter will be apt to
place them in g more dangerous predica-
ment than they were in before they adopt
ed for the purposes of enc campaign a
battle-C-y which they knew would SIAM
pede many of their staunchest followers.
AS disturbing element, therefore, the
question of prohibition is to be quite as
veXatiOus to the Republicans of Michigan
hereafter as it ever was. If they ignore
it they must face the secession of the
original PrOhibitionists, with such re-
Cruits as they may have obtained during
the late canvass. If they continue it's
advocacy they will be confronted by the
large anti-prohibition Republican vote
which this year remained with the party
in spite of its unpopular platform, but
which cannot be depended upon to hold
that attitude forever.

ing cool can bring but very little moisture.
Our country being located on the east
side of the Rocky mountains, the "Wind-
shade" of that mountain chain receives
the west wind after striking these mounts,
which, as we have mentioned, almost al
ways will work as CondensatOrs, and the
mountainous country on the south side
will in most cases cause the south wind
to drop its moisture before it reaches US.
Only the east wind sweeping over the
Atlantic will bring US with some certalatY
the longed-for blessing.
But in such peculiar situation to have
local rains, and to be not dependent on
the so. called season rains, becomes ne
cessity. And as we know the means of
procuring them we must endeaVor to &C
complish this purpose. Cultivation Of
the soil will give US local rains. Irriga-
ton extends the surface of water for
evap oration, and the growing crop and
the growing trees will preserve the water
Which they receive as dew or rain in wet
seasons, distributing it, keeping the
earth II a constant moist state and giving
birth to springs. a more extended cult
walton will form rivulets, brooks and
lakes in the shade of trees and blooming
fields, saturating the air with moisture
and causing the local rainfall and dew.
(The dew being formed by the air con-
timing yapor aud coming in contact with
the cool surface of the earth at night.)
Every tree planted in our country, and
every acre cultivated Will bring Us step
nearer to this purpose"

THE Texas State Press Association meets in
Fort Worth next month. DR.. Cranfill says he
Will endeavor to get free transportation. If he
would just add free drinks and free grub what
q crowd he would have GAINESVILLE Times.
The Times feels disposed to resent the lmpl-
cation contained in the above. San Antonio
provided no free beer last year. The associa-
ton, almost to a man, commended that de-
parture from the usual custom. 1t Ia to be
hoped it will Se followed at Fort Worth, not
because the members of the press are in dan
ger of making hogs of themselves, but because
they are able to pay for what they drink,
and do not wish a bar room to be considered
as a necessary adjunct to their meetings.
[San Antonio Times.
The people OF Fort Worth have higher
appreciation of the gentlemen who will
meet in this city next month than to i'm
agine they expect a free bar opened for
them. This city knows they neither ex-
pect nor desire such hospitality" as that.

were either defeated or left unattended
to, but, on the other hand, much valuable
legislation was effected. In addition to
the great number Of local and private
bills enacted, some measures Of general
public interest were passed into laws.
There were eleven new counties created,
the organization of which will add
materially to the wealth and pro-
gress Of the state; good and sensible
land law was enacted and the State Land
Beard abolished; the Commissioners of
Appeals, board for the relief of the Su-
preme court, was revived; the civil and
penal statutes have been changed in sew
eral instances, notably as to carrying
arms, and where injury to railroad prop
erty is provided for; dealing in futures
was prohibited; election laws were
changed the sale of liquor was regulated;
constitutional amendments as TO prohibit
tiOn and changes in the Judiciary system
were submitted 10 the people; the law as
to the effect OF wills prObated in other
states was changed; law allowing any
city or town to compromise existing in
debtedness was passed; house of cor
TeCtlOn was provided for; the public
school law was advantageOUSly amended.
Among the measures of importance which
were considered, but not passed, may be
mentioned the regulation of pharmacy, the
geological bill, the amendment to the
libel law, the PeCOS irrigation bill, the
university bill, the text book for the pub
lie schools, several railroad bills, an ap-
preparation for furnishing the new capitol,
the amendment for exempting manufac-
lures from taxation and some others not
now recalled r he aDOrODriatiOOS for
the support of the government and the
educational and humane institutions are
fairly liberal, and, upon the whole, there
is no just cause for complaint. As d rule,
and the exceptions to it are Infrequent,
the press and people are disposed to re-
gard their legislatures with disfavOr, to
eXaggeTate their faults and depreCiate their
good points. This rule has been applied
to a very great extent to the Legislature
Just adjourned, not without considerable
prOvocation in many instances it is true,
but as often perhaps regardless of reason
or justification.

THE San Antonio Express, which has

As the accomplishments of Fort Worth
follow fast on the heels of THE GAZETTE's

do no more with it's opinion than to find
qualification in its expression. A little Of
such "wind" at San Antonio might help

tons than any city in Texas save a

Mormon Elders Thrnatnnsd

RALEIGH, N. c., April IA party of
Mormon elders came from Tennessee
into the western part of this state some
weeks ago. They began making converts,
particularly among the women. This
created great indignation on the part of
people in parts of Buncombe and Hender-
son counties. An organization was eff
fected for the purpose Of the expulsion of
these MOrmons. The latter were duly
notified to leave Immediately. If they
do not tar and feathers will be used, and
perhaps worse punishment will be in
ficted. In the mountain section some of
them were nearly beaten to death and
were driven into Georgia by the indig-
nant people.

IRRIGATION IN THE HEST.

Although the ram mas come ana II SuCh
generous fall as to break the drouth, the
people of the west are debating pre-
ventive of such misfortunes as befell
some counties last year and which
threatened the whole state this season
The blessed rain which has removed all
fear and revived dropping hopes should
not be permitted to interfere with the
discussion Of any means calculated to
make assurance doubIy sure, and THE
GAZETTE trusts that every community in
the west that has the means of irrigation
may continue to debate the question TO a
decision. THE GAZETTE gives place to-
day to some articles on the subject Of
irrigation in the west, and adds here the
suggestions Of the San Angelo Record:
''Water constitutes such an important
factor in the welfare of all organic life,
that we consider it not uninterestlng to
our readers to speak Of it. 1t consists of
hydrogen and oxygen; both these
elements forming, under certain con-
ditions, a chemical bond, which
at certain temperature appears as the
liquid commonly known as water.
Forming q part of our atmosphere it
possesses an eternal circulation. The
water on the surface of the equatorial
ocean is constantly evaporating under the
influence of the hot, vertical sunbeams;
the vapor, not visible to the eye, ming
ling with the atmosphere, which, in con-
tact with the surface of earth and ocean,
having been heated, rises through the
cooler and therefore more dense and
heavier atmosphere, supported in this
motion by the contained vapors.
Arrived at higher regions these
equatorial atmospheric streams divide
and food upon the cooler and denser air
towards both the poles. The cool air in
northern ATTITUDES receives through this
motion, or rather because the stream
is Of less density, an impulse to
stream in southernly direction
toward the equator, there to COM
mence the circulation anew. This circu-
lation is the main factor in keeping cur
atmosphere in constant motion. The
warm equatorial air constantly moving
towards the poles, sinking on its way
gradually to the surface, and the cold
polar air streaming towards equatorial
regions, known as "pastwinds."
Not all the water rising at the equator
as vapor takes part in the whole of this
circulation of the atmosphere. Many
circumstances may cause it to fail sooner
as rain or SLOW. Winds mingling cool
air with the warm air lsdened with mois-
ture will cause it to condense and to form
clouds, and mountain chains having the
effect Of condensators, like the cold win
dow glasses IN heated room in winter.
A similar process CT evaporation and con-
densstion takes place on all parts of the
earth containing surface water, as oceans,
lakes and rivers.
Now then, it will be easily understood
why, in situation like ours, our rains
generally come from the east. The north
wind passing over the continent and be-
